    Baker has one of the best movie adaptations, has been documented and reissued at nauseum and has worldwide acclaim and recognition. Sounds like mostly an inner-circle type of persp…

    They are purposely losing billions, this is a growth phase where all of the big AI companies are racing to grow their userbase, later down the line they will monetize that captured…

    But there are a ton of LLM powered products in the market. I have a friend in finance that uses LLM powered products for financial analysis, he works in a big bank. Just now anthro…

    I'm confused with your second point. LLM companies are not making any money from current models? Openai generates 10b USD ARR and has 100M MAUs. Yes they are running at a loss righ…

    Pretty can get in the way sometimes. I like your site, it's easy to ingest the information quickly. I might simplify the design of mine to make it more usable. There's a reason why…

    Hey I'm doing something similar for NYC! But focused on screenings with special appearances only. There's a lot going on here. Happy to share notes. [0] https://filmspotlight.org/

    I created an agent to scan niche independent cinemas and create a repository of everything playing in my city. I have an LLM heavy workflow to scrape, clean, classify and validate …

    Sounds like you asked Claude for a fix and it gave you a proper fix to your badly designed api endpoint. If it's an operation that's taking that long then yes, implementing it asyn…

    I think you're definitely engaged, but not so much with the moment itself more with the act of taking photos. It does make you focus on the subject, but in a very specific way. Eve…
